SOC 3115 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £41,700, and Bilfinger UK Limited is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
Worth checking: this could also be SOC 8143 (Routine inspectors and testers, Routine inspector/tester if work is mainly repetitive production-line testing), which is not on the eligible-occupation list. Ask Bilfinger UK Limited what the duties actually are.
